There might be some kind of trust system that could work. I have no idea of course but I’m envisioning something like Stack Overflow’s system and a bit of community correction and authority à la Wikipedia.
Nah, I think they’re just being mass-created. No one’s actually spamming anything so far. You can see so on this directory of instances: https://the-federation.info/platform/73
If you scroll around you’ll find some that have like 10k or 20k users and 11 posts at most.
I really like Japanese with Shun (on Spotify, I don’t know about other platforms?) and also Comprehensible Japanese (here on youtube) which has lots of free content, also a dedicated site with extra material for Patreon supporters.
Shun’s good cause he speaks slow enough without being annoying, and enunciates quite well.
Basically the same for Comprehensible Japanese! Though these are extra nice since there’s an extra modality (namely video) which she uses so that you can continue listening with context.
I’ve been thinking of hosting my own instance for myself, but I was wondering if you’d noticed any oddities! I’ve heard of some bugs that occur when interacting cross-instance. Also stuff about content being out of sync, which I notice currently with lemmy.ml from my current instance (lemmy.world).
I had one til a few months ago!
